AppPresser – Mobile App Framework

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

36 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 12 listed. 24 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 68% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

   We have a company that sells education and were looking to design an app. We felt this was a great way to go. We purchased the $948 package, spent another $3k on a developer, got to the end of the app and the videos would not play. When we emailed for help, they said to have the videos labeled as “unlisted.” We did that and they still would not play. When we emailed AppPresser support they replied…”this is a Vimeo issue and nothing to do with AppPresser” and would not help us further. Total waste. Also, the “push notifications” have no place to “live” on the app. They can be sent from a website, but when opened, nothing will appear.

   I have been chasing for support to fix two issues for months. Their plugin clashed with ManageWP so I have had to turn off the back up for my sites – and they randomly crash my main site when their Divi add on randomly turns on when it’s suppoorsed to be off. They don’t respond promptly (or at all) and have to be costantly chased. There is no real effort to deal with the site crash issues and despite multiple requests to look at the ManageWP problem they have totally ignored me. I purchased the highest paid version but even that makes no difference. This is increadibly frustrating.

   Getting Apppresser was the best decision I could’ve made. The customer support is super fast and helped me out several times. It’s also a really fast way to setup an app. I had set up the first version of my app in about a week.

   Say what you will about Apppresser, but we have made three apps with their platform now and they have always provided great customer service. More often than not, they will do what they can to help out without charging me additional fees, and I appreciate that. Very responsive and helpful.

   There were some issues with integration and communication, but their customer support team came through. I would recommend their service. This topic was modified 5 years, 8 months ago by Steven Stern (sterndata). This topic was modified 5 years, 8 months ago by spnlocal2017.

   For over a decade my company has provided end-to-end website and mobile app solutions to small businesses as well as established organizations like the NFL Alumni and unions of the NYPD. We began evaluating the Agency Plus AppPresser Plan in February 2020 and found the interface extremely user-friendly. Since implementing AppPresser, we have been able to deliver mobile apps in a fraction of the time and at a fraction of the cost all with just a basic knowledge of HTML and CSS. Because much of the app content synchronizes with WordPress in real-time and because our app images synchronize over our servers, we are usually able to completely refresh the look and feel of the app with fewer App Store Submissions. Since our initial purchase in February 2020, we have experienced major improvements in the AppPresser support process. As a matter of fact, Damien on the AppPresser support team has exceeded our expectations for support. In summary, with only basic HTML and CSS skills, we are able to deliver apps faster and cheaper in a user-friendly framework while greatly reducing the number of App Store Submissions. AppPresser has been a great investment exceeding our expectations! Lee Reeves, President and CEO Intelligent Design This topic was modified 5 years, 8 months ago by idesignllc.

   I am not a developer, but have been using WordPress for many years. So I’m pretty familiar with it and since my website for this project is WordPress-based, I was excited to find AppPresser. I didn’t feel like I would have to reinvent the wheel or spend tons of time learning yet another platform that wouldn’t pan out anyway. People seem to be complaining about the price of this plug-in but you have to think about how much it costs to pay a development company or an app building software subscription every month – this is a steal. It just takes a little elbow grease. Do the work and you have a great outcome. It’s up to you. You can do tons with this plugin. You just have to play around with it and get to understand what’s possible. I was able to create a great looking, feature rich app with AppPresser that ties in with my site. I’m very satisfied. I landed with this plugin after spending a year messing with other options. I’ve reached out to AppPresser support about a dozen times so far (during the height of COVID btw) and received help within 24 hrs each time that was professional and resolved my issue. I’ve also witnessed several updates during my time with this plugin so far, so I can say they are continually making improvements. Great job in my experience!
